Wedged between Siberia and northern China, Mongolia is the world’s least densely populated country. It is one of the last remaining places on earth where the silence and emptiness of the landscapes around you truly fill your soul. Still, Mongolia’s 3.2 million people proudly keep their ancient history and rich cultural traditions alive—and protect its unique natural charms, from the oldest national park on the planet to the extremely rare Bactrian camel. On this journey, venture into the wilds of the steppes and deserts for an intimate, unforgettable discovery of a world that transcends time.
